Jesus, the Suffering Servant, brings true justice.  He does not grow weary.  Nor does he rest till he brings justice to the earth. We of St. Vincent’s family pray, for sure, for the end of war in Ukraine and Gaza.  Day after day, we ask for justice for the innocent...

Christ Jesus preaches the Good News of peace to all.  To be his means to be a foreigner no more, but fellow citizen with all those who are his.   The foreigner, who sees that has been healed, lives by faith.  The other nine, in turn, for whom healing has also taken...
